I enjoy playing bowls, but I've always found club members very fierce. That *was* a few years ago, though. And competition is *intense*!

There's quite a big bowls club (Datchworth) about 150 yards south-west across the road and the rec.ground from my front gate; it gets very busy there in the summer.

I enjoy playing bowls, but I've always found club members very fierce.

Don't they like occasional players, or are they hyper-fussy about the colour of one's clothing or something?

And competition is *intense*!

From the comings and goings there, especially in the summer, they must have a pretty full fixture list, I'd guess. I've only ever been over there when they have their jumble sale, to see if I can pick up any useful tqt.

I dunno. The Huddersfield Bowling circuit was a pretty cut throat affair. Apart from half a dozen teams in the company Sports & Social club, a lot of the people I worked with played for their local team. It's the over 30's version of gang warfare.
